Commercial Fixed Wire Testing

Quantec has carried out Fixed Wire Testing for over 25 years, developing high-quality systems and techniques that set us apart from our competitors.

Fixed Wire Testing & Inspection is the testing of an electrical installation to ensure its safety and compliance. Once completed, you will receive an up to date Electrical Installation Condition Report, referred to commonly as an EICR. Fixed Wire Testing is also known as Electrical Installation Testing.

By liaising with the site contact we make sure that any disruption to your business is minimal. We also bring dangerous items to the attention of the on-site contact immediately.

We offer a thorough fixed wire test and inspection by injecting test voltages, showing the correct functionality of cables and connections, testing for wear and tear, as well as visual damage. Our fixed wire testing engineers are experts in spotting hazards within your system. Areas of testing include the main incoming supply point, sockets, light fittings and other wiring accessories.

Once fixed wire testing is complete, we send data collected by our engineers directly to our offices to generate a report, via our bespoke reporting system.

Keeping track of when fixed wire testing is due is essential, along with later remedial works. This helps you to ensure fixed wire testing is complete on time. It will also stop any confusion when it comes to your building insurance.

Fixed Wire Testing is due on a regular basis, as electrical installations deteriorate.

Deterioration can occur due to general wear and tear, corrosion, excessive electrical loading as well as other unavoidable influences.

Dependant on the type of establishment, test frequencies can vary.

Schools, Colleges, Universities and other educational facilities every five years.
Buildings that serve the industrial sector every three years.
Commercial and Retail premises every five years.
Leisure facilities, as well as cinemas and theatres, are tested every three years
Swimming pools are tested once a year.
Construction sites every six months.
Petrol stations every three years.
Marinas once every year.
Laboratories every five years.

Are you unsure about how often your site/premises requires fixed wire testing? Please get in touch, and we’ll be happy to help.

Legal Obligations

An approved organisation must undertake Fixed Wire Testing by a qualified organisation/individual. Without testing within the correct time frame, Builders Insurance can be invalid.

The Health and Safety at Work Act 1974 states that employers are responsible for H&S in the workplace. The Electricity at Work Regulations 1989 requires precautions against death or personal injury.

You can be open to prosecution if people on site are not protected from electrical injuries at work.

Our Fixed Wire Testing service eliminates that risk. Ensuring that employees and visitors are as safe from electrical danger as possible

Fixed Wire Testing Reviews

Initially Quantec carried out regular 5 year fixed wire testing together with all of our PAT testing across our various sites. This has always been carried out efficiently, on time and with good paperwork and reports. The reports themselves are always clear, which makes it easy to take further actions on any improvements.

Quantec are the preferred contractor for a number of schools in Medway under our Trust for statutory 5 year EICR. They are employed for remedial electrical works resulting from fixed wire testing, as well as independent electrical maintenance work. Quantec are also in place at several schools for P.A.T. testing, with more schools to follow.

Quantec have proven they are not only reliable, with qualified and experienced engineers but they are also aware of the ethos of how educational establishments run and they always offer valued flexibility in their approach to works. Quantec are our first choice fixed wire testing contractor and I have no hesitation in recommending them.
